Let's Play Name that President....

Known for funny ways he pronounced certain words.

Used fathers influence to get into a certain branch of the Military.

Family was good friends to Senator Joseph McCarthy.

Won the Presidency by the narrowest of margins.

Launched an attack on a Country which had not attacked the US.

Expanded funding for education.

Made cutting taxes an administration priority.

His younger brother, often touted as a Presidential hopeful himself, was also very active in politics.

Zachary Taylor?

McCarthy was, as is the wont of evil, really old.

Funny, except that he said those words in Berlin....and in so doing never actually admited to being a doughnut(because citizens of Berlin, unlike most Germans, did not use the term Berliner when describing a doughnut)....they called them Pfannkuchens.

Well, you just said above that the President does not have much power, and I agree. To me, it's a figurehead job. And so symboligy is an important element to me.

I was hoping someone was going to point that out. I was expecting it to be GD and expecting it to be done so in a harsh tone, but just happy that someone bothers reading my ramblings just the same.

If the president is just a figurehead then what is the point of hating the current one since he can't possibly be responsible for any of the things you hate?
